It seems the guy that owned the car before me rear ended someone and the front of my frame is bent up a little. Here are a few pics of what I’m talking about. I think if I put something between brace 1 and 2 I can push brace 2 forward again. I have no idea how I would do this though, any ideas?

How bout the small jack that comes with the car?

 

good idea

 

I fixed similar damage by pulling the bumper cover support as far forward as possible by hand, then straightening the rest with a block of wood and a hammer.

 

I had the same damage, So when I went to repaint my car, I used a torch to heat up the area (probably unessisary), then I put a block of wood behind it, and used a "soft" mallet.. I put the hardest, polymer ends on the mallet, and it straightened it right out.. My lights and hood sit flush now and everything
